Proposal to Consolidate Teacher Education Schools
a proposal to merge various teacher training institutions into one. Teacher training colleges (TTCs) might combine to form a single institution like to the Kenya Medical Training College (KMTC) if the taskforce on education reforms’ recommendations are implemented.
All 34 of the currently operating teacher training colleges will be taken over by Kenya Teacher Training College, which would run them as campuses across the nation.
The Ministry of Education should be reformed so that its Higher Education department is in charge of supervising teacher training, according to the Presidential Working Party on Education Reforms (PWPER).
The current teacher training admission requirements will be altered to increase program accessibility because they have led to low enrollment.

A C (plain) grade point average on the KCSE, or Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education, was once required for admission to universities.
Under the proposed plans, the topic clustering methodology that is now used for admission to the basic teaching diploma program will be discontinued.
Candidates must currently hold a C or above in all cluster-related fields, including English, Kiswahili, mathematics, a humanities or science course, and a science course.
Although there are now only 3,922 pupils registered, TTCs have a maximum capacity of 26,650 students.
The PWPER advises including applicants from underrepresented groups in the TTC admissions pools by employing affirmative action policies.
Students from certain places would be accepted with less stringent entrance requirements in an effort to enhance enrollment from those areas.
The Kenya Universities and Colleges Central Placement Service (KUCCPS) would be in charge of choosing students for the KMTC and teacher training programs.
